Breakfast at Restoran Tim Sum Sin How Wei
Dim Sum
- Under RM20 per pax
It had been awhile since Chiefeater Tai Kwee Fatt and his family had dim sum for breakfast so they decided to visit Restoran Tim Sum Sin How Wei


Kopi
Stopped by Yuit Cheong Coffee Shop along Jalan Pantai, one of Kota Kinabalu’s oldest kopitiams. Established in the post-war 1940s, Yuit Cheong is one of Kota Kinabalu’s oldest Hainanese coffee shops, said to have once served state leaders and locals alike. That legacy alone makes it worth a visit for history lovers.



The kaya toast was notably thin and dry. Without the usual slab of butter, it fell rather one-dimensional in flavour. The kaya itself was mild, without much fragrance or caramel depth.

The kopi ais, however, was enjoyable — smooth, balanced, and with just the right sweetness to start the day.

The bill came to RM9.80 for two drinks and one toast set.
Take note: it’s cash-only, with no e-wallet or card facilities.
Score: 7.0/10
M – Meal Value (6.5): Kaya toast was average, kopi was good, portion small for the price.
V – Vibe & Venue (7.8): A nostalgic space with friendly service and an authentic old-town feel.
X – X-Factor (6.7): The historical legacy and courteous staff keep it relevant, even as the food slips behind.
